Getting a sun-kissed, flattering mix of shades into your hair doesn't have to mean using harsh chemicals. There are a number of ways to get the look naturally, and for very little money.
Lemon and honey
Mix equal parts honey and lemon, comb them through your dampened hair and wrap your head in a warmed towel. Then, sit back and watch your favourite show for a few hours. Rinse off the mixture and hey presto lightened hair!
Salt and sunlight
We all know what happens after a few weeks in the sun - your hair gets that tousled, fresh and bright look. This is an effect of the salty sea water and the sun's rays bleaching the colour from your tresses. Recreate the holiday look by rinsing at home in salt water and spending plenty of time outdoors.
Rhubarb
This is a leftfield route to lighter hair. Steep rhubarb, allow to cool and mix in a good dollop of your favourite hair conditioner. Slather it all over your head, wrap in a warm towel and.... Wait. Fruity, shiny, lighter hair.
